Oh, and sorry to break it to you - he didn't have a birthday yesterday. He''s dead.
Of course he is dead but he can still have a birthday.
Oh, I'm sorry to have to break it to you. It's the Skylab missions in low earth orbit that were plagued with near-death disasters. Once Nixon had succeeded in bamboozling the world with his TV-Satellite Howard Hughes Apollo propaganda, space exploration suddenly returned to normality, didn't it? Suddenly, the hardware would not cooperate, astronauts were in danger in low earth orbit! But Apollo was so perfect in every way?
Everybody knows that the Apollo 13 TV drama was patterned after the 1969 film "Marooned" starring Gregory Peck, one of Nixon's favorite actors and directed by John Sturges one of Nixon's favorite Hollywood directors.

I sense it's getting close to when the moon landing hoax is finally revealed.
Why today did the mainstream media decide to reveal to the public the 'ingenious' moon simulator?
Why today? What was the purpose of this article today?
dailymail.co.uk
I believe it's drip feeding the public the truth. Obviously they can't handle it in one fell swoop, so here is an article laying the ground work for eventual disclosure.
Plant the idea that it could have all been a simulation. It will make the truth so much more palatable when it comes to pass.
What will that day be like?

I do know it. What of it?
im sure you know what weight and is.. you just dont know the difference..
you dont realise that the rigs in both the documents you posted are similar rigs to what the mythbusters used.. by manipulating the length the spring is extended they can manipulate how much weight to subtract from the astronaut..
you see both rigs from the documents use springs to suspend some of the weight.. this has an effect of lowering the "apparent" weight of the object.. the only problem is, it is still under the influence of earths gravity..
this probably means nothing to you.. however as you are NOT aware, all things regardless of mass and regardless of size fall to earth at 9.81m/s^2 in a vacuum.. ie. a brick will fall from 1m in the exact same time a feather will fall 1m in a vacuum..
by suspending some of the weight its still going to fall at 9.81m/s^2.. all they have been doing is changing the apparent weight..

I suppose it proves you can't address....what it proves...
This study proves NASA was using harness/pulley systems to simulate 1/6g (lunar gravity) before the (supposed) moon landings.
Most relevant is that it proves their harness/pulley system was adjustable. They set the duration for their jumps. And it proves that we can match Young's jump - no doubt.
simulate the feel of being on the moon and being on the moon is different.. the system that you have provided documents for is the same system that the mythbusters used.. and as you can see, it doesnt change the falling acceleration even though it has taken 5/6's of the weight off.. thats 83% of their weight taken off already.. if you take off 95% of the weight its still going to fall at the same acceleration..
you really need to understand this, all things fall at 9.81m/s^2 on earth in a vacuum theres no going around this fact.
youtu.be...edit on 11-1-2014 by choos because: (no reason given)
You made the exact same mistake earlier.
You claim "all things fall at 9.81m/s^2 on earth". You are wrong.
All things free fall at 9.81m/s^2 on earth, without factoring in any atmospheric resistance.
In the case of a human suspended by wires -he is NOT in free fall. He is not falling at 9.81m/s^2, unless the wires are essentially 'removed'.
A harness/pulley system allows a human to 'break' from the effects of earth's gravity. A jump is 20 feet high, far higher than any human could jump within our normal gravity. Then, he hovers 20 feet high, in mid-air, for two minutes. He is not in free fall. Indeed, he is not even falling - period.
So after he is lifted 20 feet high, and then 'floats' in mid-air for two minutes, you think he must fall at 9.81m/s^2 ?
No. He falls at whatever rate they choose, ranging from equal to, or less than, the speed of earth's gravity. (But not greater than the speed of gravity).
His fall can be much slower than a fall in lunar gravity. Or it can be the SAME speed as a fall in lunar gravity.
His jump, including his fall, is controlled
Get it?

The purpose of simulating lunar gravity, or 1/6g. So, if they jump in 1/6g, but fall at speed of Earth's gravity, as you claim they do, it is not a simulation of 1/6g!!
They didn't fall at the speed of gravity. The simulation uses the harness/pulley system -which allows for the fall to be at the speed of lunar gravity.

Actually he never got to watch that one went to sleep. Gregory Peck has a tendency to do that to people though so its really not surprising. But you know what Nixon did have french toast that morning and pizza for lunch.

See you have no clue how the white house movie theater worked do you? in fact you cant prove he watched any movie unless you can quote him talking about it like Patton for example he really liked that one. I suggest you look into the diffrence between what the white house received and what movies were actually watched by Nixon. Where you aware that movies were sent to the white house in hopes the president would watch them? Thereis no evidence what movies were actually screened and watched by the president because even when he wasnt in the white house screenings took place. Doctor zhivago in fact was a favorite of his daughters and requested alot. So what you need to do is research the whitehouse theater and how it operated and get back to us.

Bluffing really prove it i told you to look into how the white house theater screens movies the president isnt always present when it happened. He could choose not to attend and maybe only his wife and kids or just staff go look it up stop making others do your homework for you.

Theres no secret about the DOD space program it receives a budget every year. In fact has an entire military units involved.

and in case you missed it.. both documents are using the same technique as the mythbusters.. mythbusters got their weight down to 5/6's of the original.. jarrah slowed it down to 66.66% but still doesnt match up?? mythbusters jump higher and faster.. ie. the upwards rate is faster than john young, and the downward rate is faster than john young..
i know with your extremely limited knowledge in physics you cant comprehend what im trying to point out here, i dont even know why i try..

For you to spout off about your knowledge of science is a joke.
